After heartfelt deliberation, the Shanghaied Roller Dolls (SRD) organization has come to the tough conclusion that it is time to cease our operations. Even with our best efforts, we were not able to maintain the membership/skaters needed to run a sustainable charitable organization for the purpose of playing roller derby. Therefore, SRD will not participate in any further practices, scrimmages, or bouts for the 2017 season. We do not anticipate that SRD will return to active status at any time in the future.

There are several people in this area who are interested in continuing to learn, play, coach and compete in roller derby. If you would like to be a part of this roller derby community, please join the North Coast Derby Connection Facebook group.

We would like to thank everyone who has supported SRD. Just like at award shows, we will forget to thank some of you, but even if we leave out your name, please know how much you are appreciated!

ToClatsop Fairgrounds and The Astoria Armory, thank you for being our home venues.

To theJunior Roller Derby program at the Astoria Armory, keep on skating and practicing your skills. You are the next generation of roller derby, and we hope to see you on ESPN one day.
